This is a "Komekui Nezumi" (rice-eating mouse), a traditional craft toy from Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, found at a flea market. It seems to have been created around 1830, influenced by the popular mechanical dolls of the time. It has been cherished as a good luck charm, believed to bring increasing wealth. It has a charming mechanism where the head and tail bobble when you press its back. This one is made by "Nakajima Menya," a workshop that crafts traditional toys from Kanazawa. Please add this cute piece as a subtle accent to your bookshelf or desk. ○ Approximate Size Width: 8.5 cm Depth: 6 cm Height: 9 cm ○ Condition As this is a vintage item, there are minor scuffs, scratches, and dirt.
